Yolohostel

Amazing staff and place! I felt like home, will definitely stay there again when I come back :)

Location Refrigerator in the room Open spaces in common area Could have been a lot cleaner. I defrosted refrigerator, cigarettes butts all over incl. back stairwell. I personally know that cleaners did not sweep the floor in our room. Downstairs bathroom and kitchen Wow, could be cleaner.

The Turkish girl who met me first at the hotel wasn't very welcoming.

The bed matress is comfortable. There is a small shelf to put your mobile phone on, and a plug in each bed area. There is daily cleaning of rooms. The staff are nice and friendly. I was also given a free extra blanket upon request. The best thing is the location. This hostel is in the heart of Istanbul's local downtown: Kadikoy. The price is too high for a hostel with 6 beds in a small room. Hostels are meant to be for budget travellers and the price is one of the most important factors that give value to such accommodations.

I think it would be great to have some sort of shelf built into the bed so we could place items like mobile phones, wallets and water bottles. Also, I was travelling alone and I really missed some events to bond with other guests and make friends. Something like pub crawls or a typical Turkish lunch.

There isn’t a kitchen and the open area is quite small.

Staff were very supportive and helpful

Not a great space to meet other travelers compared to most hostels. No alcohol allowed in shared spaces.

Staff

Staff were very welcoming and always willing to help with directions and recommendations.

Some wooden lockers in room seems to be broken, lack of place to hang the cloth or jackets at least.

Great location in Kadikoy N/a

Location, reception 24 hrs, hot water. A creepy guy at midnight dressing a skirt in my room, claiming I can't turn off the lights. That's freaky sick and decadent.

Excellent overall, spotty WiFi

Really nice private female dorm with kitchenette and bathroom in the room. Along with curtains and lockers to make you f

Great location. Very clean. And the beds were very comfortable Not a social hostel. Common space is small.

The location of the hostel was perfect either direction you go you’re close to everything. The ferry station and M metro to SAW airport are all within a 5-10 minute walk and in a very quiet part of Kadikoy. The bars are also about a 5-10 minute walk away. The beds are amazing, the room is huge, and curtains for privacy. The bathrooms are also located in the room as well. This is my go to hostel here in Istanbul, and it’s only getting better. Give the breakfast a try it’s amazing. Nothing at the moment.

Amazing hostel! Very close to Kadikoy metro and ferry station, tons of restaurants and cafes near by. What’s more - the staffs are amazing! They gave me amazing recommendations to Turkish music, food, culture, made me feel like home :) Will definitely be back if I ever travel to Asia side of Istanbul again :)))) The water kettle in the dorm wasn’t working, but the staff gave me water from the cafe bar directly, so problem solved ;-)

The hostel was very near the Kadakoy port and bus terminal. Just some few steps away. The bed was very comfortable. John (the receptionist when i checked-in) was very welcoming and helpful. The other receptionist (sorry i forgot to ask his name) when i checked out was very kind. He even gave me a cold bottled water coz he said it's very hot outside. I only stayed for a night but i'll be back for sure the next time. Uhmm maybe when i opened my assigned cabinet and saw that there were clothes inside. But that's not a big deal. I only had a backpack so i just put it on a corner.
